I would also expand on this to assert that the same broad issue of change/conversion is encountered when parents bring children for baptism. Rather than an opportunity for growth, celebration and conversion for the whole family the issues are often feelings of obligation, a sense of &quot;that is what is done&quot;, without much thought as to why. A diminished sense of faith along with a diminished sense of sin also complicates issues of growth in faith and salvation.<br /><br />GaryGaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02913324875512445654noreply@blogger.com
